Importing OCSP signing certificates

OCSP signing certificates are certificates with no private keys. For dynamic certification revocation, you must verify them through an OCSP server. This option allows you to import remote (OCSP) certificates into FortiADC and use them to verify the OCSP response signature.

Before you begin:

• You must have Read-Write permission for System settings.
• You must have the remote certificates downloaded onto you local machine so that you can upload it to FortiADC.

To import an OCSP-signing certificate:

1. Go to System > OCSP.
2. Click the OCSP Signing Certificates tab.
3. Click Import to display the configuration editor.
4. Complete the configuration as described in Importing an OCSP signing certificate .
5. Click Save when done.
6. Repeat Steps 3 through 5 to import as many remote certificates as needed.
